Somebody pinch me. Did I just see one of my essays quoted at the bottom of that post? Dang. Thank you, Substack, for the recognition, and thank you, Sydney Michalski, for the recommendation. And to everybody else who has recommended my newsletter and essays or mentioned my name, thank you.

Oh, thank you so much, Martha. And thank you for taking the time to read it. That essay was by far the longest out of the three in the series.

Wow, what a thrill to have my essay included in this round-up of such incredible authors. As an emerging writer, Substack has been such a warm home for my writing, and I’m thankful for this ecosystem that facilitates connections between artists. And thanks for the recommendation, Sarah K. Butterfield!

Really loved this edition, great to have some new writers highlighted and some create essays to read that I wouldn’t have found myself!

I wish there was a Dutch version of this newsletter. So many great substacks are popping up in the Netherlands. Will we see regional editions of Substack Reads at some point?

Wow! I’m honored and stunned that Jose Andres recommended my piece on Sopa de Paloma. Really great way to end the year. Thank you so much, Chef.

Hey Substack Reads! Thanks for the opportunity to fill out your survey! Just FYI- I did it on line and it worked fine, but when I click the link in the app it just takes me to your home page.
